White House hopeful Joe Biden has condemned President Trump for likening the impeachment inquiry to a "lynching," though he made a similar comparison when describing the impeachment investigation against former President Bill Clinton.
"Even if the President should be impeached, history is going to question whether or not this was just a partisan lynching or whether or not it was something that in fact met the standard, the very high bar, that was set by the founders as to what constituted an impeachable offense," then-Sen. Biden (D-Del.) said in a 1998 interview with CNN, which was unearthed by CNN’s KFile.

"Impeachment is not 'lynching,' it is part of our Constitution," Biden tweeted Tuesday. "Our country has a dark, shameful history with lynching, and to even think about making this comparison is abhorrent. It's despicable."
The Biden campaign declined to comment both to The Hill and CNN.

I’m sorry.
I don’t know why my post posted twice.
The headline confused me.
Biden was speaking in a 1998 interview with CNN.
CNN is not reporting on this now.
Hypocrisy is the Democrat Party stock in trade.
L
The Hill reports it, CNN, which has ALL the video, does not.
CNN is a Turd Rated News Network..
They only report on anything TRASHING the POTUS.
THEY SIMPLY ARE ADDICTED TO:
Hate
Anger
Jealousy
Envy
Sex
Impeachment
Immigrants / Fence or Wall
enough said..CNN doesn’t play at our house...
That was back then, this is now. So Slow Joe is a hypocrite? Quelle surprise!
Dems are considered “honorary” Blacks by the Liberal Left and their Media outlets.
Funny how that works, isn’t it?
